The Pistons are unlikely to be sold until at least February, the firm handling the sale for Karen Davidson has informed potential buyers.

Citibank, which was hired by the widow of the late owner of the Pistons, Bill Davidson, to represent the franchise for the sale, informed potential buyers last week that the deal is unlikely to be completed until the NBA All-Star Game. The advisory to the potential buyers was confirmed by sources close to the deal.

As long as it happens before the trade deadline, that's all that matters to me....

Re: Sale of Pistons may not happen until February

that woudl sure be nice. Talk of Varejao being dealt is starting again. There isn't a player available I want more than him. Bring us back to our bad boy roots!

Tay,Jerebko or Summers plus a first for Varejao and Moon and I'm happy as a pig in shit.

Why is Cleveland making Varajao available?

He's got a large long term deal and they want to rebuild. Might have to take on Jamison's deal and bite the bullet.

Tay,Charlie,JJ/Summers(possibly both),Wilcox and 1st('12 if both Fs given up) for Varejao,Jamison and Moon(waived)

We clear them out a big chunk of salary and make them younger. JJ brings back some of the lost energy from AV leaving and clearing out Jamison is a big help. tay would help them in the short term as they have no SF. could be a trade chip too.

Re: Sale of Pistons may not happen until February

I think at this point we're going to have to just settle for something. Rip isn't happy at all. Tay hates the coach and obviously isn't going to sign with Detroit as long as Kuester is the coach. We're in a pretty bad spot right now as far as trades or being in a position to sign a good FA go. With the way things are going I think we're probably best off taking our chances with a lottery pick.....
